Vincent Dauvissat (and father René) have become what many consider to be the top domaine in Chablis (along with Raveneau) through very hard, meticulous work in the vineyard and the cellar. Of course it doesn't hurt that they also possess some of the best parcels within the best Premier and Grand Cru vineyards.

All their wines are fermented in tanks and spend a year settling there before being carefully transferred to oak barrels, mostly neutral, for additional aging. This adds a richness, depth and complexity to the mineral, saline characters that their terroirs produce.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 95
"There is a fascinating hint of crushed fresh tarragon that I sometimes get in a classic Preuses along with hints of anise, petrol, white orchard fruit and a broad array of citrus elements. There is more volume still to the rich, enveloping and highly seductive medium-bodied flavors that display focused power on the equally impeccably well-balanced finale. This is Zen-like in its sense of harmony and a wine that should amply repay 10 to 12 years of cellaring." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"The 2023 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru was unusually reticent on the nose when I tasted it from barrel. it gradually unfolds with subtle lanolin and walnut scents. The palate is well balanced, refined and pretty, a more elegant Les Preuses perhaps. Not quite as rivetingly complex as the previous vintage, yet it is graceful and sustained in the mouth. Wonderful." -Neal Martin

Decanter

D 96
"In a swirling aromatic complexity, fruit aromas range from lime peel to guava, green apple and spice. A suggestion of white blossoms and a bit of toasty reduction are underlined with chalky minerality. The palate has lovely concentration, but the wine is never heavy; it has perfect finesse and precision. This wine is exceedingly youthful, and although it is undeniably delicious now, it will age tranquilly for at least another 30 years. This has it all." -Charles Curtis, MW
